15 Comments
One of the executives responsible for the launch of Microsoft's answer to the ubiquitous iPod is leaving the company, it was announced Wednesday. Entertainment and Device corporate vice president Bryan Lee will leave to pursue personal interests. Replacing him will be J Allard, who was responsible with running the company's Xbox business. Microsoft gave no further details as to why Lee had made the decision to leave.
Lee does not leave the Zune division without some success. 10.2 percent of players shipped in December with hard disk drives were Zunes, although overall the Zune was only able to grab a 2.5 percent share. Microsoft expects to sell about one million units by June.
